ORACLE Lighting to Unveil Groundbreaking Vega 7 Off-Road LED Pod Light at 2025 SEMA Show

Las Vegas, NV — [November 21st, 2025] — ORACLE Lighting, an award-winning leader in automotive LED solutions, is proud to announce the debut of its latest innovation: the Vega 7 High-Performance Off-Road LED Light, launching November 3rd at the 2025 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Designed to outperform industry benchmarks the Vega 7 offers cutting-edge technology, exceptional durability, and unmatched value. The product will be showcased at SEMA Booth #57147 in the West Hall, alongside ORACLE Lighting’s growing portfolio of high-performance lighting solutions.

Next-Generation Lighting Performance. The Vega 7 is available in two high performance configurations: LED+LED and LED+Laser. Engineered from the ground up, the Vega 7 Laser delivers over a staggering 676,900 candela, and a projection distance of 840 meters (2,755 Feet), outshining competitors such as the LP6 in both raw output and distance (by over 2 football fields) in lab tested performance.

“The goal with Vega wasn’t just to compete—it was to lead,” said Justin Hartenstein, Founder and Director of Product Development at ORACLE Lighting. “By pushing more current to the LEDs and integrating active thermal management, we’ve created a system that delivers massive light output without sacrificing reliability.”

Innovation That Performs. Unlike traditional designs that rely solely on passive heat dissipation, the Vega 7 features Active Cooling through an integrated high-efficiency fan, circulating air through specially designed rear cooling fins. This ensures that the LEDs operate within optimal temperature ranges even under sustained high-load conditions maximizing performance and extending component life.

Notable Features Include:

• OSRAM BOOST-HX LED chips for high-lumen output

• IP69K Ingress Protection Rating for extreme weather resistance

• Deutsch DT06-4S connectors for secure, OE-level connectivity

• Symmetrical 40° Beam Angle w/ Optional Center Laser Projection

• Amber Side Position Lights for enhanced visibility and styling

Inspired by the Stars. Named after the luminous star Vega—one of the most important celestial references in modern astronomy—the Vega 7 light embodies performance, precision, and forward-looking design. “Just as the star Vega has helped navigators and scientists find their way, the Vega 7 is designed to light your path through the most challenging terrains,” Hartenstein added.

Built to Outshine, Priced to Win. With a focus on delivering the best value in the off-road lighting market, the Vega 7 offers premium-grade performance at a more accessible price point than comparable lights. It’s built for enthusiasts who demand the best—without paying more than they should.

The new Vega 7 will be on display at the ORACLE Lighting booth (#57147, West Hall) throughout the 2025 SEMA Show.

MJMERAM8D1V3 – Serious Bass For Ram Trucks

Memphis expanded its truck enclosure lineup with the introduction of the new MJMERAM8D1V3, a dual 8” Mini MOJO enclosure engineered specifically for 2002–2018 Ram Crew Cab trucks. Designed to fit seamlessly under the rear seat, this precision-built enclosure delivers deep, powerful bass tuned for the unique acoustics of Ram interiors.

The MJMERAM8D1V3 comes loaded with dual 8 MOJO Mini subwoofers, tuned in an oversized side-ported vented design to produce hard-hitting, accurate low-end output that performs far beyond expectations for an underseat enclosure. The Memphis-branded bedliner finish gives it a rugged, durable appearance that blends perfectly with the Ram’s factory interior.

Installation is simple thanks to included ½” seat spacers, which lift the rear seat just enough to fit the enclosure without any permanent modifications. The two-piece split enclosure design makes shipping and installation easier than ever, while protective high-excursion grills keep the subs safe from daily wear.

With a 1-ohm final impedance and power handling rated at 1800W RMS / 3600W peak, the MJMERAM8D1V3 brings the unmistakable MOJO punch to the truck market — clean, loud, and built to last.

“This enclosure brings the full MOJO experience to Ram owners without the hassle of custom fabrication,” said Nick LoMonaco, President of Memphis Audio. “The Mini MOJO subs hit with serious authority, and this box is tuned perfectly to make the most of that power. It’s clean, powerful, and installs like it came from the factory. We made the decision to split the enclosure into two separate pieces to lower shipping costs and prevent damage during transit — without sacrificing any performance.”

The MJMERAM8D1V3 is available now for immediate shipping!

• Model: MJMERAM8D1V3

Everything’s Bigger in Texas! Modus Featured Award-Winning Cybertruck During Electrify Expo 2025 Season Finale

ARLINGTON TX  (11.19.25) – Electrify Expo’s 2025 season wrapped up in Texas as MODUS exhibited and demoed its award-winning 2024 Tesla Cybertruck build November 15th and 16th at Globe Life Park in Arlington. MODUS drove away from the most recent Electrify Expo on Long Island, N.Y with the show’s Best Vendor Vehicle award.

“During the 2025 Electrify Expos in Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago and on Long Island MODUS has become a featured stop that drew big crowds as attendees wanted to experience our Cybertruck demo. That happened once again in Texas” said Jason Digos, Modus Senior Sales Trainer. “Once inside the Cybertruck, all were blown away as they didn’t realize such a high-end and powerful audio system can be integrated into today’s complex electric vehicles. We were excited for attendees in Texas to live this experience, as well.”

The MODUS demo and display area is set up to draw a crowd.

Jason Digos and Matt Delgado from MODUS were joined in the very busy booth by members of Southwest Sales and Marketing team Scott Ringo, Taylor Williams and Mark Sartain. Southwest Sales and Marketing is the MODUS rep firm in the TOLA territory. 

Firm Principal Scott Ringo offered “Dealers in our territory have shown great interest in the MODUS products to provide solutions for EV owners. Spending time in the booth was a great experience. We learned from Jason and Matt plus heard questions from EV owners and enthusiasts at the event.”

Mark Sartain, Jason Digos, Scott Ringo, Taylor Williams and Matt Delgado (LtoR) are pictured by the MODUS Cybertruck opening day.

The misconception that premium audio is merely a luxury add-on overlooks the soundstage potential of EVs. These vehicles offer something combustion engines never could: silent cabins paired with abundant electrical power, creating an unprecedented opportunity for truly immersive, audiophile-grade sound systems.

The Modus Cybertruck installation achieves several industry firsts, showcasing Modus’ innovative PREACT™ current-averaging technology operating directly on Tesla’s 48V DC electrical system. This marks a significant advancement in mobile audio integration with electric vehicles, capable of delivering 6,000 watts (RMS) of audio power without requiring voltage inverters or additional batteries, which is a first for any EV audio system. This was made possible through Modus’ patented PREACT technology in the new Mezzo amplifier line, which operates with unprecedented efficiency at higher voltages.

“Consumers are often wary of adding or altering audio components in Teslas and other EVs because of their sophisticated electrical systems, but we are educating them that the technology is available today to do so safely and effectively. Having the Southwest Sales team, along with Nick Williams from area retailer Mobile Sound Systems in the booth, sets the stage for MODUS going forward in the territory. Dates have been set for the 2026 Electrify Expo Tour and we are looking forward to 2026″ Digos concluded.

  • High-Output LED Technology: Optimized LED pixel density delivers significantly higher brightness and clarity than factory or typical aftermarket options, improving visibility in all conditions.
  • Individually Addressable LEDs: Enables smooth, dynamic sequential turn signals with animation effects that stand out while preserving the original lens design and appearance.

“This product represents everything our brand stands for: performance, innovation, and enthusiast-driven design,” said Justin Hartenstein, Founder and Director of Product Development at ORACLE Lighting. “By starting with the Foxbody Mustang, we’re honoring a true performance icon and circling back to where it all started for ORACLE Lighting in 1999 with Foxbody Mustang parts.”

Whether it’s a original restoration, a weekend show car, or a modernized restomod, the ORACLE Classic LED Taillight Series adds both functional safety and visual appeal. The lights are designed to be easily installed by DIYers, professional builders, and restoration shops alike.

With the continued growth of the classic and retro‑modern vehicle market, ORACLE Lighting’s new product line fills a critical gap for enthusiasts seeking premium lighting that enhances their vehicle’s heritage without compromise.

TROY TREPANIER WINS 2025 SEMA BATTLE OF THE BUILDERS WITH “FENDERLESS” 1936 FORD ROADSTER

DIAMOND BAR, Calif. (Nov. 18, 2025) – Troy Trepanier was crowned the overall winner of the 2025 SEMA Battle of the Builders presented by Mothers Polish competition with his stunning creation, a 1936 Ford roadster named “Fenderless.” Trepanier won the Hot Rod/Hot Rod Truck category and edged out three other class champions — Tim Franklin (Sport Compact/Import Performance), Ron Jones (Off-Road), and Thomas Dickerson (BFGoodrich Young Guns) — to secure the overall title.

2025 SEMA Battle of the Builders Overall Champion Troy Trepanier

Trepanier, a fixture in the custom car world, returned to the top of the industry’s most prestigious builder competition eight years after winning the Battle of the Builders title in 2017. His latest build captivated judges and fans alike at the 2025 SEMA Show with its flawless craftsmanship, balanced design, and innovative engineering.

“It was great to be back in the SEMA Battle of the Builders contest. It has grown a lot since we first won the event eight years ago,” said Trepanier. “We finally had a car worthy of being back in the competition. There were so many great cars this year. Everybody was a winner — the Top 40, Top 12, and especially the final four.”

Troy Trepanier’s 1936 Ford roadster (Hot Rod/Hot Rod Truck Winner & Overall Champion)

Completed in January 2025, Fenderless is a completely scratch-built vehicle designed to resemble a 1936 Ford roadster, but with every dimension reworked to achieve ideal proportions as an open-wheel car. Every major component of the project was fabricated in-house at Rad Rides by Troy in Manteno, Ill., including the body, chassis, suspension, and all machined parts.

The car features a 1957 McCullough-supercharged 312-cid Ford Y-block engine, paired with a Bowler 4R70W transmission and quick-change rear axle with torsion bar suspension. The bodywork, paint, and interior were handled entirely by Trepanier’s team, which finished the roadster with a modified Porsche Aventurine Green Metallic color to radiate elegance.

Tim Franklin’s 1960 Porsche Custom 356 (Sport Compact/Import Performance Winner)

“Trepanier’s vehicle is a testament to the level of creativity, craftsmanship, and innovation that define the SEMA Battle of the Builders competition,” said RJ de Vera, SEMA Vice President of Marketing. “This program celebrates the builders who push the boundaries of what’s possible and inspire the next generation of automotive visionaries.”

Ron Jones’ 1973 VW Thing (Off-Road Winner)

SEMA Battle of the Builders recognizes the top vehicle builders in the world, celebrating innovation, craftsmanship, and passion within the automotive aftermarket industry. Franklin won Sport Compact/Import Performance with a 1960 Porsche Custom 356 that was in absolutely terrible condition before going through a transformation that resulted in contoured body/rolled rocker panels and a fresh streamlined look. Jones’ Off-Road-winning 1973 VW Thing was created from the ground up with a one-off chromoly long-travel tube chassis and featuring more than 350 machined pieces. Dickerson earned the BFGoodrich Young Guns title with a 1967 Chevrolet C10 that he built on his own with a custom engine bay, glass, headlights, and interior.
